The courses are available in an interactive online format that allows students to test their knowledge immediately by answering page level questions. After reviewing all material, students are then tested with final exams and must pass with an average score of 76% or better in order to receive credit for their CE hours.
This 32-hour course is based on Mike Holt’s “Illustrated Guide - Changes to the NEC 2008” and “Understanding the NEC Requirements for Grounding versus Bonding” textbooks, which are loaded with colorful illustrations and graphics.
2008 Code Changes program highlights the most important changes students need to know for the new Code Cycle.
Part 1 covers Articles 100 to 376. Subjects include:
- Wiring Methods and Materials
Part 2 covers Articles 404 to 830 and includes the following important topics:
- Equipment for General Use
Grounding versus Bonding program gives students an excellent working knowledge of Article 250 of the National Electrical Code. You learn the purpose of grounding - its operation and its impact on electromagnetic fields, system grounding vs. circuit grounding, location of grounding connection, enclosure grounding and much more. Electrical Theory has been applied to this “difficult to understand” Article, making the concepts easier to understand. Additionally, the graphics are color-coded so you can easily differentiate between grounding and bonding. Subjects include:
- Circuit and System Grounding
- Grounding Electrode System and Grounding Electrode Conductor
- Methods of Equipment Grounding
- Grounding of Systems and Circuits
WECA highly recommends that you purchase a copy of the 2008 NEC when taking this course.
To receive credit for this course you must:
- Complete the entire course which includes 2008 NEC Changes Part 1 & Part 2 Exams and Grounding vs. Bonding Exam. No partial credit will be given.
